Before coming to Xi'an to do my homework, many people advised me, 'Bell Tower Hotel Xian is old, hardware is average, don't have too high expectations.'. But I booked two nights for it in the southwest corner of the clock tower, where every inch of land is precious. My calculation was that during the day, I would rampage through the city walls, Muslim streets, and stone forests, and at night, there would always be a place where people could completely unload it. It has been proven that this old four-star joint venture, which opened in 1983, has leisure facilities that, although not luxurious, happen to be in line with the pace of "old-fashioned slow life".
On the afternoon of check-in, after completing the procedures, I didn't enter the room and turned to the lobby. The window is opposite the corner of the clock tower, and you can order a pot of Shaanxi green tea with two dishes of Dim sum. The depth of the sofa is just right. The crowd outside the window is noisy, and the tea in the cup is quiet. This "quiet in noisy" is the unique skill of the old hotel. Next to the lobby bar is the tea room, half separated by wooden screens. Three or five old friends can brew tea and chat leisurely, or flip through two pages of books alone, which gives them a bit more concentration than internet famous cafes.
In the evening, I wanted to stretch my muscles, but the front desk told me that the hotel does not have a gym and swimming pool - it is safer to know this in advance, as several new hotels in the same business district only have heated swimming pools and fitness centers; But the Bell Tower Hotel adopts a different approach: massage rooms, foot baths, SPA spa, sauna, plus chess and card rooms, library, leaning towards a "recuperation type" rather than a "sweating type". I chose a Chinese massage and after making an appointment, the technician arrived at the therapy room in about ten minutes. The lighting was dimmed, and there was a faint guqin in the background. The technique was not fancy but in place, and the stiffness in my shoulders and neck that had been accumulated all day was relieved by most of it. After finishing, I steamed in the sauna area for a quarter of an hour and then went back to my room to take a hot shower, resetting my entire appearance. I didn't use the chess and card room and library on the same floor, but when I passed by, I saw something on the bookshelf
Chang'an Chronicles
Books like "Memoirs of Old Xi'an" are quite suitable for the tone of ancient cities.
I didn't want to go out at night, so I turned to the Bell Tower Cafe on the second floor and ordered a single malt. The bar light was warm yellow, and a few tables of customers were chatting softly. The background music was a light jazz adapted folk music. The relaxation of not having to rush to the venue is precisely the most expensive part of the leisure experience - it is not about the strength of individual facilities, but about linking tea, wine, massage, reading, and scenery into a flowing line. You can come down from the city wall, eat your fill from the Muslim street, and turn back to the hotel to slide into another rhythm.
The next morning, I went to the tea room and sat for half an hour. I turned over two pages of books before going to the buffet breakfast. Steamed rice cakes, soup with pepper, and freshly cooked noodles were all available, and my physical strength was just right. Before checking out, the concierge also reminded that the courtyard is the Xi'an Restaurant, so if you want to arrange afternoon tea or light meals with someone, you don't need to find another place.
To be honest, if you are the type of person who can't sleep without a gym, this company may not be compatible; But if you're looking forward to a slow tour of the ancient city - tea when you're tired, massage when your shoulders are sore, a lobby bar view when you want to be alone, a library corner when you want to daydream - then Bell Tower Hotel Xian, this old-fashioned leisure combination, is actually more skin friendly than a business hotel with a pile of equipment. Looking back at the porch before leaving, I suddenly understood why the old resident was willing to come back repeatedly: it didn't provide excitement, it provided a place to return.Show more
For this trip to Xi'an, there was hardly any hesitation in choosing the location, and I directly booked the Bell Tower Hotel Xian at 110 South Street, Beilin District. The old four-star hotel, which opened in 1983 and was renovated in 2010, is located right next to the southwest corner of the Bell Tower. The underground passage leads to the Bell Tower subway station, and the airport shuttle bus is also parked in the backyard parking lot. The hardware location goes without saying, what really makes me want to write something when I come back is its services.
On the afternoon of the day of arrival, the taxi had just stopped at the porch when the concierge came up to pick up the luggage, saying "hard work" without any formalities. The front desk is on duty 24 hours a day. When checking in, the girl casually handed over a hand drawn small card while typing on the keyboard, which marked the walking routes of Huimin Street, Drum Tower, Yongning Gate on the city wall, and Kaiyuan Mall. She even wrote a few sentences about which local people lined up for the steamed bun restaurant. I casually mentioned wanting to see the night view of the clock tower. She checked the room status and silently changed from a twin bed in the street view to a high-rise clock tower view room. She didn't actively mention "upgrading" and only found out when checking out that the room rate had not changed - this kind of low-key consideration is much more comfortable than announcing "I upgraded you to a room" in person.
The response speed of guest room details is more indicative of skill. Half an hour after checking in, I found that my razor was missing. I called the front desk and thought I would have to wait for a while, but in less than three minutes, the service robot arrived at the door first. In addition to the razor, there was also a small bottle of moisturizer in the tray; Immediately after, the housekeeping lady knocked on the door and delivered two bottles of water, casually asking, 'Do you need an extra set of tea bags?'. The next day, I woke up early and rushed to the city wall. The receptionist noticed that I was holding a camera and took the initiative to remind me, "The south gate tower is closest, and there is less light before 7 o'clock." He also helped me call a car and stood on the roadside watching the delivery car start before turning around - this kind of "invisible" concierge habit is rare in many new hotels nowadays.
Breakfast is served in the second floor restaurant from 7:00 to 9:30, priced at 68 yuan per person. After taking a seat, the waiter first asks whether it's coffee or tea, and there's no need to wave to refill the cup; In addition to the traditional Chinese and Western items, the dining area is complete with steamed cakes, soup with pepper, and freshly cooked saozi noodles. I looked at the window master twice more, and he smiled and asked, "Do you want more spicy food?". For families with children, the front desk office will hand in a Xi'an themed travel passport with the clock tower, city wall, and Terra Cotta Warriors seals when checking in. Many parents praised this caution in their comments. The front desk lady squatted down to explain the sealing order to the children, which is very patient.
On the day of check-out, there was a shower. The concierge not only helped to call a car, but also stuffed two hotel logo umbrellas and said, 'Use them first, just return them to us next time.'. I joked and asked, 'Aren't you afraid you won't return it?' He smiled and said, 'Xi'an people treat guests, how can you let them get soaked in the rain?' The old-fashioned hotel's color of 'treating guests as their own' immediately stood up. The hotel official also stated that the concept is' you are our family, providing caring and meticulous care like a family '. After staying for two nights, I feel that this statement is not empty.
Of course, to be honest, the building is quite old, with some room carpets and hardware showing signs of use. The street facing square is crowded during the day, which may not be friendly to hardware perfectionists. But if you, like me, value "being taken care of properly" more than "having a brand new wall", this store will help you understand why many old Xi'an residents and repeat customers are still willing to stay here after more than a decade - it sells not only the view and location of the clock tower, but also a nostalgic and taken care of old-fashioned service. Leaning against the window at night to watch the clock tower light up, the sound of people downstairs is bustling, but someone in the room has already thought of the lights, water, route, and rhythm for you. This kind of peace of mind is a very expensive thing in business trips and travels.Show more
